A Year of Unity and Strengthen the Family of Rotary
Dear fellow Rotarians, it is with deep sadness that we started the year with sorrow and tears. As our two Past Presidents, Rtn. Jonathan and Rtn. Stella lost their son – Jessy Muwanguzi (2yrs). On behalf of the Rotary Club of Mukono Central and friends, I extend our heartfelt condolences to the family during this difficult time.
I also thank everyone who trekked the journey to Mbulamuti Village, Bugweri district (Eastern Uganda) for the burial. Thank you for your presence and support during the burial. We are also very grateful for your financial help towards the arrangements.
Your kindness and unity is deeply appreciated. Thank you for being there for our own. Your support means a lot. For Rtn. Jonathan and Rtn. Stella – you are in our prayers always and we are here to support you. May Jessy’ soul rest in peace.
Unite for Good is this year’s Rotary International message and this was exhibited during this trying moment. Let us also continue to Unite for Good on projects, enjoying socials, hearing interesting speakers and making a positive impact in our community.
In the same spirit of unite for good, I thank the board of the rotary club of Mukono Central for showing up on Wednesday 9th in our very first board meeting to review and pass the updated club bylaws, strategic plan and other club businesses we had. It was an awesome experience having nearly the entire board, very active with contributions and ideas. Indeed this is a strong foundation we are building for our club and let’s keep focused on the goal.
Our Board is in the process of designing an Annual fundraiser which will be held in August to benefit community projects. This year we are looking forward to a successful contribution to benefit the Rotary Foundation, including Polio Plus, and I am looking forward to your support in this area.
Service projects, and so much more will be possible because of your generosity and let us continue to United for Good on these causes. I encourage all Rotarians to participate in the training opportunities and events offered by Rotary District 9213.
Many in-person and virtual opportunities are offered that help you learn more about Rotary. By attending district events you will meet other Rotarians, network, share resources, and build lasting friendships that Unite for good.
Lastly today 14th– July, we will be holding our first Club Assembly, to review the resolutions of the club board and I encourage all of you, our lovely members to participate, get engaged and make your contribution count. On Saturday 19th let us join other Clubs at the 5-ASIDE sports tournament, participate and bring the trophy home.
My Board and I look forward to serving with you during this Rotary year and we welcome your ideas and feedback. It will take all of us to Unite for Good.
Rtn. Isaac Ssamba
Club President – 2025/2026
